A man has been arrested after kicking several deputies after being arrested for two entering auto incidents.

Police responded to the 200 block of Rainbow Falls in Grovetown where a man said his car had been burglarized and his wallet found outside the vehicle, while parked in his driveway.

According to the incident report, the victim told police that minutes after he found his car had been entered, but nothing taken, a man walked up to the vehicle. When confronted by the victim, the suspect, later identified as Clay Crowe, stated he was using the man’s property as a cut through.

The victim was suspicious as his property is surrounded by a 6-foot privacy fence with two large dogs inside.

Police found Crowe, who matched the description given by the victim, walking near the 900 block of Niagra Falls. Crowe told police he looked into a car with his flashlight thinking it was abandoned.

After police detained Crowe for further investigation he was found to be in possession of a perscription for muscle relaxers that did not have his name on them.
